A/N: Listen to the song I have above. It's really great and ties in with the story really well.
Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy! :)


Gray and I pulled up to Robert Elliot's house, a complete douchebag who's parents are always out of town. He throws the best football after parties, or so I've heard.

"You okay? You look nervous." Gray asked me as he put the car in park.

"Ya, totally fine." I lied. I was freaking out like never before. I would have puked from the nerves but I just kept telling myself this was all a dream. A wonderful lucid dream and I could do whatever I wanted and have a great night without any consequences tomorrow.

"Good, because there's nothing to be nervous about. We're going to have a great night." Gray told me as he got out of the car and walked around to open the door for me.

I grabbed his hand and we walked into the house like a power couple.

The house was dimly lit with red solo cups scattered around and a stench of skunk and alcohol filled the air. There were people making out left and right and kinda dancing, if that's what you would call it.

I didn't think it could get any crazier, but then we went to the back yard. There were people playing beer pong and drinking from kegs and there was a glowing pool though no one was in it. The music was loud but the drunken teenagers were even louder.

You might recall my last, and only party I went to was for five minutes and located in the woods. It was nothing like this. This was straight out of a movie.

As soon as we took a step outside all eyes turned towards us. I mean literally, it wasn't just in my head like before. Everyone was staring at me and Gray, or maybe just me.

"Gray! My boi!" Robert ran over to him and they did some weird bro handshake / hug thing. "I thought you weren't going to make it!"

"Of course I made it, it's the first football party of the year! I just had to go pick up my date." He gestured to me and my whole face went red, luckily it was too dark to tell.

"Ya I saw you walking in here with this little cutie." Robert said to Gray like I wasn't even there. "What's your name hunny?" He spoke to me like I was a child, or just simply a pair of boobs on Gray's arm.

I rolled my eyes even more infuriated that he didn't even know who I was. We have had at least one class together every year. Not to mention my brother is one of his closest friends and he's been over my house countless times. Not that I ever talked to him while he was there, so I guess I shouldn't hold that one over him.

That's precisely when I got a terrible idea. No one knew who I was, especially not in this outfit or in this almost pitch black lighting. I could be a totally different person tonight and it wouldn't come back to bite me in the ass. I could make tonight my perfect dream that actually happened. And the best part is, Gray would remember it, and he would know it was me. "Riv." I told him. I never went by that name, it's only something my brother called me. But these drunken hooligans wouldn't be able to connect the dots and realize who I was.

"Nice to meet you Riv." He winked at me. "Dude I'm so happy you decide to bring her, she's hella hot!" I wanted to punch him in the face, he knew I was right here right? I just let it go, told myself he wasn't worth it. "I heard you were with some low life or something, I can't even remember her name." He laughed and Gray looked a little confused.

"What do you mean?" He asked but I quickly cut him off.

"Do you wanna go play beer pong?" I asked Gray.
